Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle DCE is similar to EGF
CE/EF=DE/EG
Substitute
(8x-1)/21=(6x+3)/17
Cross multiply
(8x−1)*(17)=(6x+3)*(21)
136x−17=126x+63
Subtract 126x from both sides
10x−17=63
Add 17 to both sides.
10x−17+17=63+17
10x=80
Divide both sides by 10.
x=8
Answer:
first choice
Step-by-step explanation:
make 1/3 and 1/2 a common denominator, which is 6.
1x2
- = 2
-
3x 2 6
1 x 3
- = 3
-
2 x 3 6
now u have 2/6, and 3/6
u subtract 2/6 by 3/6 since ur finding a solution to an inequality. remember to do the opposite sign.
2/6-2/6 = 0 (u cancel that out)
3/6 - 2/6 = 1/6
now u have
q>1/6
since there's no 1/6 the first choice is the most accurate
Answer:
40 2/5Ibs or
lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let weight of object on the moon be represented = Wm
weight of object on the Earth = We
In the above question, we are told:
The weight of an object on the moon is
5 of its weight on Earth.
Hence, mathematically, this is represented as:
5Wm = We
If a moon rock weighs 202 lbs on Earth
5Wm = 202lbs
Wm = 202lbs/5
Wm =
Ibs
Therefore, the moon rock weighs
Ibs on the moon.
